  • (1888PressRelease) November 30, 2011 - Hauppauge, NY. ―"Training has always been an essential part of my game plan," said company president Richard Ladato. "With offices in the U.S., Central America, China and over 4,000 suppliers all over the world, travelling and training are major parts of my everyday life. We recognized the need for an accessible glossary of electronic components. Providing this resource online gives immediate access to information, instant updating, and component visuals."

    Ladato stated that his company also hoped that university students, researchers and journalists would take advantage of the new online resource.

    With over $1 billion in inventory and distribution centers in 40 countries, 1-Source Electronic Components services more than 100,000 customers globally. It is among the top 10 distributors of electronic components in the world.

    "We are a single point-of-contact, a one-source if you will, for all types of electronic and electric components and parts," said Ladato. "Our knowledge base is unsurpassed in the industry. We created the online encyclopedia as part of our commitment to service which has always been a core company value."

    The Electronic Component Encyclopedia is divided into two main parts: Active Devices and Passive Devices. The Active Devices section is further indexed by: Capacitors, Diode, Hybrid Integrated Circuits, Integrated Circuits, Magnetic Devices, Power Sources, Semiconductors and Transistor.

    The Passive Devices section is indexed by these categories: Connectors, Resistors, Resonators, and Transducers.

    A sample entry for connectors gives this definition:" Connectors, or interconnect parts, are hardware that are used to connect other devices together, such as connecting a cable to a circuit board. These parts are used to join different electrical circuits together for temporary or permanent use. With a low contact resistance and higher insulation value, these components are resistant to many forms of liquid as well as pressure and vibration. Depending on the form of connector used, these parts are able to support single or multiple circuits at one time."
